My thanks to the contributors of this thread as I was unaware of the possibility of this mishap. I had covered my arse some time ago and obtained the tool to remedy a detached head for .30 calibre but had nothing for this scenario.
Thanks to your guidance, today I spent $28 and now own a 1/4 inch Whitworth tap, matching bolt with a Hex key head and a 5 mm drill.
Now I am confident I will never, just like Zimmer, ever have a need for them.
Begone foul Murphy, I have confounded your dastardly plans......
